Default Difference in Z28 parts?

Been looking for parts of my 1980 Camaro. It is not a Z28 but pretty sure it is a rally sport. Was looking at fuel lines and I saw the description said for Z28 models only. I’ve seen that description before on some parts and steered away from those. So what’s the difference between Z28 parts and every other part available for this generation? Is it only the engine size that makes a difference or something else?

Engine size HP, and torque will vary supporting parts. If you want someone to spend the time to type out all the parts that are different good luck. Don't forget there are also options that can change things up.

An RS is a appearance package. A Z28 is suppose to have more power and a more race like suspension and more aggressive brakes, More power means larger coolant system and a different fuel delivery system, exhaust system, stronger or more parts in the transmission. Brakes, Z28 has rotors in the back. Suspension I think would be sway bar, springs and shocks and a rear sway bar. Z would also have a posi rear.

If you are talking 4th gens, the Z28 is the base v8 model and the SS is the performance and appearance package that were prepared by SLP. They came with different hoods and spoilers. Functional hood scoop, freer flowing exhaust , bilstein shocks w/ eibach springs, bigger sway bars,17 inch wheels with 275/40/17 tires and a few nice SS interior pieces (badges,floor mats,deck mat).
